9 He teareth 2963-1 [me] in his wrath, 639 who hateth 7852-4 me: he gnasheth 2786-1 upon me with his teeth; 8127 mine enemy 6862 sharpeneth 3913-4 his eyes 5869 upon me.
10 They have gaped 6473-1 upon me with their mouth; 6310 they have smitten 5221-52 me upon the cheek 3895 reproachfully; 2781 they have gathered 4390-101 themselves together 3162 against me.
